Device won't start after installation

I followed the instructions, but now the device won't turn on. If I put back the original SD card is does works, and battery level is 100%.

I'm getting the exact same thing. I've tried 3 different SD cards to no avail. To rule out the cards, I imaged the original SD and wrote that my new SD card and it boot perfectly fine.

I think I have the new 2024 version of the RG35XX, so I wonder if the image on the patreon just doesn't work for that.

If I can't reproduce your issue, I can't figure out how to fix it. Please give me specific repro steps.

Everything works for me, although I did run into an issue where if I put the SD card in the wrong slot, it wouldn't boot. Changing slots solved it for me, but I have no way of knowing whether or not my issue is the same as yours.

I can't speak for OP, but in my case I just don't think my device is compatible. I've successfully put MuOS on mine in the meantime.

Garlic OS 1.x is only compatible with RG35XX, and not Plus or any of the ones with letters. That's listed in the docs for Garlic OS.
